During the litigation, the Boltwoods requested that Wells provide documents related to the trust. They produced documents which showed confidential communications with their attorneys, but they refused to provide those documents or disclose the contents of the communications. Boltwood claimed misconduct and moved to compel production. Wells claimed attorney client privilege. The superior court ruled for Boltwood.
